byTIMMANsoN
Staff Writer
A
laptop computer, some cash,
and several credit cards were re-
cently stolen as two men burglar-
ized
some Marist College
apart-
ments.
According to
.
the Town of
Poughkeepsie Police Depart-
ment, two Gartland
-
Commons
apartments and one of the new
townhouses were burglari?ed on
Saturday night, March
30.
Apparently, the two suspects,
both from
New York. City, first
went to the townhouses, where
they found the front door to
apartment 12 unlocked. The
door was left unlocked because
one student was upstairs sleep-
ing.
According to the police. the
burglars entered, probably think-
ing no one
was
home,
.
and they
went through (?ne of the purses
in
room
B. They took only credit
cards.
Emily Merwin, who was~leep-
ing during the burglary,
said
she
is surprisingly all right with the
situation.
"I
should feel unsafe, but
I
re-
ally don't." said Merwin.

seen riding btg wheels across
campus or dancing the meren~
gue in the
'
Student Center.
Marist celebrated Greek week
and Latinoweek April
8
through
April
13.
It
was a time where the Greek
organizations could
•
come to-
gether to compete in events, and
where the Latino
cl~b, El
Arco
Iris Latino~ could
be
recognized
on campus .
.
Events for both organizations
were held
_
throughout campus
Anietra Guzman; sophomore
and vice president of El Arco Iris
Latino
·
club, said Latino week
was good for recognition of the
organization.
"Latino week is a time for our
group to
be
recognized on cam-
pus," she said.
Melanie Feliciano, a junior and
treasurer of the club, said the
week was a success.
"We had a lot of people come
out
for
the events,"
·
said
_
Feliciano.
·
,
'•However, there
weren't many non-members
that participated;''
Feliciano said her favorite
event was on Wednesday night.
_
.
"We had professionals come
and teach people how to do
dif-
ferent dances," said Feliciano.••
It was a lot of fun."
The Salsarengue, held on April
12,
was the club's semi-formal
dinner dance where people
could dance to Spanish music
mixed in with other types of
music.
Guzman said that the
Salsarengue is usually very suc-
cessful.
''Last year we had a good turn-
out," she said.
Greek week started in
1990,
·
with events including ice carv-
ings, a talent show, painted
boards, and several field events,

"We really pumped it up with

put up flyers and sent phone mail
to Marist, Vassar, Dutchess Com-

John Maroney, a third semes-

help with the party.
"We put in full-time hours all
week to put this together,'' said
Maroney. "Hopefully it will tum
out all right and a lot of people
will come."
Megan Dowden, a senior fine
arts
major at Marist, said she was
enjoying herself at the party.
"It's a good day to relax, espe-
cially with finals coming up,"
said Dowden. "I think it's a re-
ally good idea.''

SGANEWS
The Year of Response
A note from your new
student body president
Dear Friends,
_
Last Friday evening,
'.
the Gavel was passed to my
administration for the 1996-1997 academic year d and with
it
all
the responsibilities of the Student GovernmentAsso-
ciation. The transition ceremony {very tastefully done I
might add) took place at the Best Western. A few clubs
and members of
S9A
were recognized for their accom-
plishments
·
over the past year
.
The previous administra-
tion deserves cm1gratulations not only for an outstanding
transition ceremony but a great year as
·
well.
Now that' the changing of
the
guard has taken place
,
my administration can finally settle down for this last few
weeks of school and concentrate on the issues at hand.
CllfJ."~ntly, we are planning the first ever Spring _Leader-
ship Conference for'allrecently elected club officers. The
purpose of the conf ererice is to familiarize leaders with
the
·
aspects of their
·
positions that they may be unaccus-
.
tomed too.Hopefully, it will help to alleviate some of the
pressure new officersmay
_
face in their first few months
as club leaders. This will be especially beneficial for lead-
ers quring the summer months when consultation on spe-
cific club matters may not be close by.
.
In my campaign I promised to be as accessible as
possible to the
·
student body. I now urge you my fellow
students to become as involved as possible with this new
.
~d:ministration'.
_
Past administr<!tions have accomplished a
i
great deal
.
However, I believe it's time for you the stu-
dents to bring your suggestions and complaints to
the
SGA
where they can do some good instead of voicing them in
the cafeteria and at other social gathering places.
H~y,
as
·
everyone around here is so
·
quick to point out, it's your
$18,000 dollars, you might as well make the
·
most of it.
-
.
_
So for those of you who are willing to become a
·
.
little more active
in
the student body, some positions are
.
still available in Student Government.
So
stop by, pick up
.
an application, or at least voice your opinion. My door is
always unlocked, it just needs to J,e opened by you my
fellow students. And look on the bright side, you don't
have to look at me
in
the shower anymore.
As
always, have a pleasant day,
PatMara

Priority point system
·
most
fair
As
~tudents are rushing to get
their
housing fonns in oii:° time; the
fairness of the priority point system has come into question.
Many students say they should not be penalized simply because
they
are 11ot involved in campus activities
.
.·
·
·
.
·
·
Like~ise, other students feel academic success should not have
a
·
C?le in determining h?using.
·
Ac~ording to the
·
current system,
par-
ticipation in activities accounts for up to eight priority points out of
themaximumof32.
.
·
: ·
·
Griides
,
room
damage, disciplin~ record and roo~
·
.
conditlon
are
the other areas
that
compose the current priority point system.
This is a fair system
that
attempts to cater to students
.
of all interests.
If
Y?U
are n?t involved in a lot of acti
_
vities yet excel academically,
you
are
awarded with up to eight points.
.
·.
·
,
.
If
you have little to no discipline problems and keep your dormi-
tory in satisfactory condition, you
are
duly compensated.
.
·
The problem is that too many students do not want to have to work
for their QOUSing. They complain they
are forced to become active in
the college commuriity. What's wrong with that?
;
.
Extracurricular activities
are the richest part of the college experi-
ence
.
Students often learn more and make more valuable connec-
tions through their clubs than through the classroom.
Marist is only trying to advocate student life by making campus
involvement a part of the priority point system. And students who
take
advantage of the numerous opportunities available - and this
includes muctlinore than the
67
clubs on campus
~
should
be
re-
warded for their involvemenL
For those students who choose to spend more time on academics
and
.
less on activities,
·
the system has been developed to accommo~
d~te
_
Y?U
too. A student who receives excellent grade~, has no
discipline problems or
.
room damage, yet is only involved in one
activity still
earns
26 points.
•
• ·
.
.·
·
.
:
.
.
This is ~nough to assure some type of campus housing .
.
Students
at Mari st should feel grateful
·
for the priority point system. Housing
.
could
be
determined by a lottery, in which luck is your sole guide.

in respc,nse
to'
the .• :iiterilry mast~q>i~c/:
submitted to
The Cirlce
,last week by J~on White.
In
his
commentary, he focused on the problem~·gay:students face in an
undiverse setting. Hemay feelthat he,wasdoing the homosexual
community a favor by writitng his piece. But Jason.White is not
gay, and his article has absolutely no bearing on the gay
. community whatsoever. .
.
··
v
•·
·
White interviewed two gay students atMarist. He intended to :
h~lp voice the opinions of homosexuals everywhere, but ~ucceded
in
doing quite the opposite. White seems to want equality for
Mariststudents,· but judging ,by.his commentary, one can· plainly
see he further separated not only the ·gays from the straights,
but the blacks from the whites. It is peoplejust like himself
whom httcriticizes.
If
he wants to be_a voi~ for any community,
perhaps it should be for heterosexual 'African-Americans. We, as·
gay students, can speak for ourselves.
.
. .
·
We do nof~it alone .. We do not segregate.ourselves. We speak.
just
as
loud as the rest of campus .
.
We do not hide ...
In
fact, we
· are everywhere.•. Believe it or not, one in ten is a homosexual.
.
Roughly·around
500
gaynesbian students
walk
the halls at Marist.
We are; whether you choose to realizeit or not, on-your athletic
.
;~.-we are in your'fraternity/sorority. We
are
your roommates.
We are·your besf friends:-·.·Perhaps persecution was an answerin
the past, btitnow we have a voice. Not the voice of a well-
·
meaning-heterosexual. We have our own voice, ·and we will speak
for ourselves.
·
If
you cannot hear us, you choose not
to;
Perhaps ignorance
is takirig
up too much brain space. We are unique. We are not all
fashion majors. We do not refuse to use the urinals for fear of
harassment. We do not all dress in drag. Men~s clothes fit us
perfectly well. We do have straight male friends. Some of us do
love children. We don't wish we werewomen, ~And some of us do
despise Madonna. Intimate relationships between gay men (and
women) do last, as we can proudly testify. We all have the same
feelings as heterosexual men and women, and we have the capacity
to love one another.
Jason White may have spoken with two gay Marist students, ·
but he obviously:represented the,opinion,of-just:~:me:• Wf?are not
to:beSierrotyped'aslhe·same, for we have.diversity within our
·
own group. ·• We, Eddie and Jamie, are quite the opposite from what
Jason Wfilte tried to speak about in his commentary. We arejust
the same
as
everyone else, except we are two men who love each
other:· And we ourselves are able to speak about our relationship,
our opinons, our views ... even our choice in clothing. We don't
need the goodwill of others to do it for us. We can stand up for
ourselves and proundly admit that we are members of the Marist
student body.' And we.are gay. Who really cares?

Students are
not
the bad guys
Editor:
Throughout my career at Marist,
I
have noticed that Marist Secu-
rity views us, the students, as the "bad guys". They are always out
to bust the students;
Why
is that? In fact, as I see it, we are the good
guys that security is supposedly here to protect, and_ if we were not
here, their job would not exist.
This year,
I
have notice that security loves to write tickets, actually
more
than
any other year. Once again ... why is that? I strongly feel
that security should spend their time more wisely. In other words,
leave the people who belong here alone and start worrying about the
people who don't belong here.
.
What
.:lo tickets do for Marist Security anyway? Meet quotas --
maybe, make more money for Marist-yes, create angry students --
yes, create
a
hate relationship between security and students where
a strong relationship should be present so Marist Security can work
with the iotudents to make this campus a better place to live -- yes.
The point of this letter is that Marist Security should not be con-
cerned with where the people
who
belong on campus park, but they
should
he
concerned about the safety and security of the students'
and their belongings. By the way $25 for a parking ticket and a
stolen mountain bike in one week! Come on, let's be a little more
proactive!

Mymmie is Darren Duffy, a transfe~ student and a junior here at Marist College. I am ~ting this letter
to
The Circle
in
response to the letter published by Jason White _in the Viewpoints column of your April
3, 1996 issue. ·
.- ··
·
The points which are emphasized in your letter are well addressed and they're of great concern to all
ofus at Marist. However, in your letter you bring with your concern of diversity and discrimination a
sense of discrimination in the letter itself.
·
·
·
In
specific, you said the cafeteria has no selections whereas they really do have a multitude of
selections from every corneroffood groups as well as beverages. In your letter, you are over-general-
izing racial groups at Marist by separating the " ... black kids being young, having fun," and the " ... bunch
of white kids with plaid shirts having fun." These statements connote that these students only sit
separately from one another and only have "fun" here at Marist.
In
regard to the statements made about the gay section, I feel that here at Marist College there are
more elements of diversity among the student arid faculty body than at the equally sized college which
I transferred from,
.is
well as_ the real world. The gay members of our student body feel that they have
no voice or expression here
at
Marist, but in truth they really do. With clubs such as the
Bi,
Gay and
Lesbian club students can gather and voice their opinions and concerns toward the entire student
body. This also applies to the different ethnic clubs such as the Italian and the Gaelic clubs. The way
a
person dresses cannot deem whether they are gay or not, nor can the jewelry a person wears today.
with the modern trends in fashion.
If
a person feels that they are discriminated against here at Marist,
I
feel that they have not given the school nor the students here a fair chance. To over-generalize with
a closed mind is discrimination. Open· ·up your minds and your mouths to voice your unbiased
opinions and you will succeed.

BiGALA
president speaks on commentary
Editor:
.,
I'm not sure where Jason White goes to school, but
I
for one can say that in
a
single day at Marist,
I
interact with an incredible diversity of people. I hang out, got to class and work with Latinos, African-
Arnericans, athletes, Jews, _heterosexuals and lesbians, or any combination of these. Each person on
this campus is an individual in his or her own right, that cannot be categorized or labeled. Every person
I know defies stereotypes in one way or another. Unfortunately, Jason White hasn't had this experience.
· He complains of alack of diversity and segregation of groups into "ghettoes" on this campus. Ac-
.. ·cordirig'tohim, "the\vhite section", are "a bunch of white kids with plaid shirts: .. mostly from Connecti-
cut, New Jersey or Long Island." According to Jason White, "the gay section ... sit alone, say nothing,
and must hide. They are silent. They have no voice." Jason creates the ghettoes he complains about
by
furthering stereotypes. Jason goes on to lend the gay community at Marist a voice through the story
of Eddie and Paul, two gay men on this campus who are inaccurately portrayed, lumped together,
categorized; segregated and stereotyped through Jason's representation of them.
I challenge that representation.
I
am a white lesbian from Brooklyn that doesn't wear plaid shirts.
I
do
not sit alone in "the gay section" silent and afraid.
I
speak my mind and I have friends that support me.
I
identify
with
the gay community but
I
do not segregate myself in it.
I
work toward advancing my
community through the Marist Bi GALA~- Bisexual, Gay and Lesbian Alliance -- our supposedly silent
voice on this campus. And my friends, housemates and professors, straight, gay, black and white
support me.
-
Jason, there is no "gay section" on this campus. Gay men, lesbians, bisexuals and people questioning
their sexuality are yourroommates, your frat brothers, your housemates, your classmates, your cowork-
ers,· your relatives and your best friends. They make up the diversity at Marist you have failed to see.

the first' six matches of the
season
·
. the nurribetone
·
and two
playerHor the men's tennis team
·
were carrying
the
load
:
On Sun-
day, however, it was the middle
man's tum to play top notch.
·
·
Madst's Tony'Yacobellis (third
·
singles), Andrew
·
Janes (fourth
singles) and Ben Sc
.
urto (fifth
singles) all came up with crucial
wins
to
key a 4-3 team victory
· over the Manhattan Jaspers in
Riverdale, New York. The win
also evened the Red Foxes'
record at
5-5'. ·
"Usually its been the top half
of our team that's been playing
well for us, but it was the middle
that came through for us today,"
head coach
·
Charles Hardman
said. "We've been working on
their games· a bit of late and
they've really· shown some im-
provement.''
.
,
·
Yacobellis, down 2-5 in the first
set of liis match, showed great
patienceanddetermination - two
qualities he hasn

t
exactly been
knowll for lately
~
to come back
and win the setin a tie-break, 7-6
(8-6)
.
·
He
"
also took the
·
second
set, 6-0, to earn the victory.
"I was very pleased with the
fact that I stayed in the match,"
Yacobellis
·
said. "I've been
known to lose my head a little bit
in the past, but I kept it today."

a

little more for-
giving in his 6~3, 6-1 win.
In doubles, the first team of
Than Ferris (number one singles)
and Ryan Ulizio (number two
singles) were able to rally back
from a 0-5 deficit to win the set in
a tie-breaker,
9-8 (7'-2).
The sec-
.
ond doubles team, consisting of
Yacobellis and Janes, also came
up big with a
8-4
victory.
Those two wins provided the
crucial fourth point in the Marist
win.
In previous action from the
week of April 2, the Red Foxes
secured two wins (Iona and
·
Siena) against just one defeat
(Hofstra).
·.
·Notable performances were
.
turned in by Ferris
(3-0),
Yacobellis (2-0), Ulizio
(2-1)
and
·
Scurto
(2'-
l ).
·
Another fact to note should be
that Marist has won four of its
la'it five matches after losing four
of its
·
first five to start the sea-
son.
Yacobellis said he feels that
positive turnaround will continue
this weekend at the NEC Cham-
pionships in Emmitsburg, Mary-
land.
"We have a good shot this
year," Yacobellis said. "We're all
playing pretty well right now.''
"one person
can't
change the world,"
never tried.
